Spring labor is a movement in which labor unions hold concerted negotiations in the spring. Last year's spring labor union resulted in the highest rate of wage increase in 30 years.
But real wages have remained negative for 22 consecutive months due to the impact of price increases. In the future, we will be able to create an environment where it is easy to pass on prices, leading to wage increases for small and medium-sized enterprises and non-regular employees. On the other hand, there have been cases in which large companies have unilaterally reduced payments to subcontractors.
